Huntington Beach is probably your best bet. Not far from the theme parks, plenty of GOOD restaurants and shopping on main street.
If you want a more small town feel then Seal Beach would get my vote (of course I'm a little biased here) nice, old fashioned wooden pier.
Be advised that the ocean water is still quite cold, in the low 60's and there has been a terible Red Tide condition going on for several weeks now at most of the beaches in SoCal. bring a kite or pick one up at a shop while your here and enjoy the weekend!
The Aquarium in Long Beach is nice but it's nothing compared to the one in Monterey, and still a bit on the expensive side.
I'll trade you one of those Macbooks of yours for some space on the living room floor and a pitcher of Margaritas!!
